I am bowling in league last night and have been bowling very well over the past month. My average in this league is up to a 178 from the 172 a month ago. I normally average 180-185. In any case, I have been getting very consistent and throwing a good ball. So I am 406 after 2, not thinking about shooting 6 at all. One of the guys on the opposing team comes up to me and says "If you dont shoot 6, you really suck". He then walks away laughing!! So, obviously, I start thinking about it and after every non-strike frame, he looks at me and chants "its slipping away". I end up shooting a 191 my last game and go 597 for the night. That to me is still a decent night, but I feel that had he not said anything I would have gone over 6 easily. It really messed with my head and I guess my mental game isnt as strong as I thought it was. Oh well, I beat him by about 80 pins on the night and his average is only 4 pins less than mine, so I guess you could say I got the last laugh!!
